Sushant Singh Rajput reshoots a song because he wasn't the focus in it?

Mumbai: Sushant Singh Rajput, last seen in ‘Raabta’, is currently shooting for ‘SonChiriya’ with Bhumi Pednekar.

The actor had begun ‘Kedarnath’ shoot with Sara Ali Khan, but since that project is on halt now, his focus has shifted completely to ‘SonChiriya’.

In fact the actor even went on to convince his director Abhishek Chaubey that a song he shot for, did not have much scope for a male lead, and thus, it should be reshot.

A source reveals to Mid-Day, "While going through the footage of the song, Sushant felt that the romance between his character and Bhumi's wasn't coming across. Since this is the only song that throws light on their love story in the otherwise gritty dacoit drama, it was imperative that the romance be established. On seeing the rushes over and over again, they realised that the song focussed on Bhumi's character with little scope for the male lead. When Sushant suggested the changes to Abhishek, he decided to reshoot it with a balanced approach."

"The new version sees Sushant's character professing his love for Bhumi," says the source, adding that the song was redone in time to avoid further issues. "It would have been difficult to redo this later since special permissions were taken for the shoot in Madhya Pradesh," concluded the source.
